Hi y’all! So, lots and lots and lots of cooking has happened this past week which makes everyone in this house super happy. I think these Southwest Chicken Egg Rolls are our absolute favorite. We’ve basically been snowed in so before the big storm hit Eric and I packed Pepper up and we loaded up on a bunch of groceries last weekend so that I could work on some new recipes because I knew I wouldn’t have to worry about running any errands of any sort. There’s something about cooking up a storm and being snowed in that warms my heart a bit. I decided to step a little bit out of my comfort zone last week and make some Southwest Chicken Egg Rolls!
I have never in my life attempted to make an egg roll, but I have literally wanted to make homemade southwest egg rolls since having them while out to dinner over a year ago! When the new Weight Watchers plan hit and it made chicken, corn, and beans zero points these guys moved from the bottom of my “I wanna make these someday” list straight to the top. In fact, over the last few months I’ve bought multiple packages of egg roll wrappers with every intention of working on this recipe, but let them expire because I was down right intimidated by the whole dang “egg roll” concept.
To be honest, I’m writing this part of this post after I’ve already written everything below and this recipe intimidates me a little… and I WROTE IT. So, I think I just need to step up and assure y’all that there’s a lot of words written here, one or two extra steps, a main ingredient you may have never worked with before, and it may seem a little out of your wheel house, but I promise you- THESE EGG ROLLS ARE EASIER AND QUICKER THAN THEY LOOK. I put this recipe off for MONTHS because I wasn’t sure what I was doing and I perfected the dang recipe on the first try. THIS RARELY HAPPENS, GUYS.
These egg rolls are one million percent bursting with flavor. I love them! They make for the perfect lunch, dinner, or appetizer. Got a girls night planned? book club? movie night with your favorite guy? Make these! (and pair them with some Southwest Chipotle Ranch, Salsa, or Guac!)
These are perfect to make ahead of time and then reheat in the oven or air fryer!
Let’s get in the kitchen:
First things first, these first few steps are sort of optional. If you have some leftover shredded chicken, grilled chicken, or wanna make it super easy and grab a rotisserie chicken from the store. That’s totally fine! You’ll need about 2.5 cups of diced chicken for these delicious little egg rolls.
These are just some quick and easy peasy sauteed chicken breasts that I use for recipes like this. I’ve got 1 pound of raw chicken here sprinkled with kosher salt and pepper. I really recommend using kosher salt instead of table salt when seasoning meat. It’s easy to find in any grocery store and it’s not expensive.
In a hot skillet add one teaspoon oil and gently lay chicken breasts in the pain. Cook over medium heat.
Cooking chicken is not very difficult in my opinion, but it does require a few things so that it’s perfectly done and not over cooked and dry as all get out or under cooked and cause for concern. Most recipes will tell ya… Cook chicken breast for 5-8 minutes on each side, but it really depends on the thickness of the chicken… and the heat.. etc. I mean, if you cook a bunch of chicken you get a feel for when it’s done, that’s true, but I follow a couple steps for perfect chicken every single time. I’ll actually do a seperate post sometime all about chicken and stuff, but for now.. Here’s a few tips.
I temp my chicken pretty much every single time I make the full breast. I temp it to about 155 and take it off the heat and lay it on a cutting board or a plate.
I proceed let it rest for 8-10 minutes before cutting into it. Why? Two reasons. If you let the chicken rest it’ll actually continue cooking for a few more minutes bringing it to 165 so it’ll be fully cooked without over cooking it. Also, If you cut into the chicken breast before letting it rest all of the juices will run out and that’s what makes the chicken moist and delicious.
I don’t know if this is the best method or if it’s considered the correct method, but it’s what I have done for years now to ensure the best chicken. So, let your chicken rest and go about your business prepping other things.
For this recipe, you’ll just need to let that chicken rest for a few then dice it up into smaller peices real quick.
Now, grab a red bell pepper and slice it into thin strips
dice it up pretty small.
Now, mince up a few cloves of garlic.
dice up a few stalks of green onions.
Add the red peppers, green onions, and garlic into a hot skillet with one teaspoon of oil. Cook until tender.
While the veggies are cooking grab a can of black beans. Rinse and drain’m well.
Grab a can of green chiles and open it.
Grab some cilantro and finely chop it up. You’ll need bout 1/4 cup worth. If you happen to not like cilantro then don’t use it. No pressure!
Now add ALL the goodies to the skillet and cook over medium heat until warm. In no particular order you’ll throw in: diced green chiles, 1 cup drained black beans, cooked and diced chicken, 1.5 cups corn, 2 teaspoons cumin, 1.5 teaspoons chili powder, 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper, and 1 teaspoon kosher salt.
Stir it all up and continue to cook for just a couple minutes.
Stir in the cilantro. (cilantro haters need not do this)
Stir in shredded cheese
and heat just until melted
Now, you’ll need a small bowl of water (or cup) and some egg roll wrappers. These are very easy to find in ANY grocery store in the produce section.
Honestly, I had NO idea what I was doing at first. I have never in my life rolled up an egg roll before. I took the package of egg roll wrappers, flipped it over, and *gasp* followed directions!
So, I’m basically going to repeat from memory what the directions said because I threw said directions in the garbage and can’t remember exactly what they told me to do. (Your egg roll wrapper package will probably have directions too. You can follow those because they will probably explain this part better than I will!)
Lay wrapper flat on a clean surface. Wet the corners of the wrapper with water. In the middle of each wrapper fill with 1/4 cup southwest mixture. Be careful not to overstuff!
This is the “hardest” part of the entire recipe and it’s not hard at all. It’s just different especially if you’re like me and have never done it before, but after your first one- you’ll be a pro! I promise.
Roll the bottom up and tuck under the mixture. Fold the sides and wet the seams with water and fingers.
Then roll the top and seal with a bit of water.
Repeat until finished. Lay them on a sheet pan.
Brush each one with a bit vegetable oil.
Okay, here’s where things get fun: I went ahead and tested two different methods of cooking these egg rolls. I tried these babies in the Air Fryer and also did them in the good ol’ oven. BOTH ways work well. The Air Fryer gives them more of a “fried” texture and take less time. But, You have to cook in multiple batches. I recommend either method truthfully. They are delicious!!
Oh! Real quick: See that one up in the left hand corner? It’s over stuffed. Don’t do that.
Alright, if using the Air Fryer. Preheat your air fryer to 400 degrees. Place them in there and cook for 6-8 minutes or until golden brown flipping half way through. They may take a couple minutes more or less depending on your brand of Air Fryer. 
When you take them out of the Air Fryer they will have a texture to them that is much more like your traditional fried egg rolls, but they won’t be nearly as many calories as the fried ones are and they aren’t dripping with grease either! They are perfection!
Oven method: Lay on sheet pan. Preheat oven to 425 degrees and bake for 15-20 minutes until golden brown.
See? They look smoother. A little different, but still totally yummy. So- If you don’t happen to have an Air Fryer. Don’t fret! Pop these babies in the oven and ENJOY!!
OH MY…….YUM!
DON’T FORGET TO DIP THEM INTO SOME HOMEMADE SOUTHWEST CHIPOTLE RANCH! OR TRY MY HOMEMADE EASY PEASY SALSA OR MAKE SOME GUAC OR NOTHING AT ALL BECAUSE THEY ARE JUST AS DELICIOUS ALL BY THEIR LONESOME…
I’M SORRY I WAS SHOUTING.
I’m not going to beat around the bush… there’s so much perfection in just a few little bites. I absolutely adore these and know that they will become a staple item around our house for fun meals to make and parties!
YOU MUST MAKE THESE!
Sorry.. shouting again.
With love from my kitchen to yours,
Star

Instructions
- For the chicken: Sprinkle both sides with kosher salt & pepper. Add 1 tsp vegetable oil to a hot skillet. Gently lay chicken breast in skillet and cook over medium heat for 5-8 minutes on each side. Temp chicken to 155 degrees, remove from skillet, place on plate/cutting board and let rest for 8-10 minutes. After resting, dice into small pieces. (See post above for tips on perfectly cooked chicken) *You can skip this step and use already cooked and diced chicken.
- Egg Roll Filling: In a large skillet add 1 teaspoon vegetable oil and add diced red pepper, garlic, and green onions. Cook over medium low heat until vegetables are tender. Add chicken breast, black beans, corn, diced green chiles, cilantro (if using), cumin, chili powder, and kosher salt. Stir together until combined and cook together for a couple of minutes. Stir in shredded cheese and heat until melted.
- To Assemble Egg Rolls: Spray a sheet pan with cooking spray. Have a small bowl of water set out to moisten finger tips. Lay one egg roll wrapper out at a time on a clean surface. Moisten the edges with your finger tip. Scoop 1/4 chicken, bean, and corn mixture into center of egg roll wrapper- Fold the bottom of the egg roll over and under the mixture, fold the ends over and moisten with water, and roll into an egg roll shape. Place on the sheet pan. Repeat until finished. Brush each egg roll with the remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil.
- Air Fryer Method: Preheat Air Fryer to 400 degrees. Lay egg rolls in tray. Do not over crowd the tray. Cook for 8-10 minutes or until golden brown flipping half way through. You will need to make these in multiple batches!
- Oven Method: Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Place egg rolls on sheet pan and bake for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown.

These deserve an award! A local restaurant we frequent used to have something similar on their menu and we loved them. They don’t carry them anymore. I found your blog by trying to find a recipe to recreate them. Thank you! #top2021
Star has truly outdone herself on these! The flavors are perfection and they truly taste restaurant-worthy. I dipped in Bolthouse avocado cilantro dressing for an incredibly satisfying dinner. I baked in the oven so I wouldn’t have to do batches and plan to reheat the leftovers in the air fryer. These will definitely be on repeat!
These are amazing! We’ve made them twice…once in the oven and once in the air fryer. They’re equally delicious, the air fryer is just better at reheating. Tonight I used one can of corn and one can of beans, and had enough filling to use all 20 egg roll wrappers. Per a previous reviewer, I’m planning on freezing the cooked egg rolls to warm up at a later date. Highly recommend making the ranch dip to dip in, it’s a game changer!
I decided to stop making 2 meals for my family, and OMG they love them so much. actually, all the recipes I try from your blog are amazing and wonderful and my husband loves them all so much which makes my life easier because now I don’t have to make 2 different recipes. Thank you for sharing your amazing talent with us all. I have been married for 40 years and I am so burnt out with menu planning so I love your weekly newsletter and menu planning, so thank you so much for your time. You rock Star!!!
I don’t have an air fryer, but if I did, this looks amazing. Love the southwest flavors and love egg rolls. Sounds like a great combo. @grobin1810
Made this tonight for the first time. I actually made them this morning, in the oven, and heated them in the airfryer for dinner. So much flavor and when partnered with the Southwest Chipotle Ranch, made them even better! Will definitely make them again! Thank you!
So yummy! Tweaked for a GF household but definitely a favorite for the whole family.
These are so ! Make them now! @priemo
This is my family’s favorite recipe ever! I’ve made these for so many friends and family, and everyone loves them. Thank you so much for all the yummy recipes!

These were the perfect project for a “wintery mix” kind of afternoon. Actually, they went together pretty quick! I poached and shredded some chicken breasts, as I was using the poaching liquid to make posole as well. I baked them in the oven for about 15 minutes but flipped them over for the last 5 minutes. Guess I could have made them a little fuller as I got 20, which was the amount of wrappers in my package, so that worked out! I love getting these in restaurants and now have a supply in my freezer!
Star these egg rolls are the absolute best. Followed recipe to the letter and I love them. Did some in the oven and some in air fryer and you’re right both are delicious.
Made these tonight!! They were sooo good!! I was impressed with myself . I did bake them due to the amount it made – nice and crispy! A 5 star for sure
Just pinned this – can’t wait to try it! Love the idea of southwest eggrolls! Your recipes are some of my favorites!!!!
These are great as a freeze ahead option! I also had leftover filling that i paired with some rice and had as my lunch for the next day.
Another yummy recipe by Star! I’ve made this several times and we love it! It should definitely be on the Top 20 list!
Hey Star!
I made these tonight(baked)but mine didn’t look like yours. They are delicious but I have a feeling the texture of my wrapper is different than yours. Mine are kind of see through. I actually had the same brand wraps you did and I think I followed all the instructions. Any ideas what could cause this?
Thanks for any help!
Jody
Hey Jody! I’m wondering if you accidentally grabbed spring roll wrappers. I haven’t actually used spring roll wrappers before, but from other recipes that I’ve seen I believe that they are clear. That’s really the only thing I can think of. I hope that helps a little!
Can you freeze these? Before cooking them? Ive,made,wontons before and we froze,them, so I was,thinking,you probably could do the same thing?
I freeze mine after making them and they re-heat just fine.
These are delicious! I was always afraid to try eggrolls so thanks for giving me the encouragement. I used the air fryer method and they turned out great. I omitted the chicken and forgot to buy black beans so I subbed in chili beans. Thanks for the recipe!
I’m so happy you enjoyed’m, Minda! They really aren’t as intimidating as I thought. Haha!
Really easy and delicious!
Will make again
Family loved them
I made these for a New Year’s Eve Party . Everyone loved them! Thanks for making such great recipes . Everyone I have tried has been a home run! Keep up the good work! ❤️
Star, I just recently discovered your website and so far, I’m in love! This was my first recipe that I made of yours, and it was phenomenal! I definitely struggled with rolling up the eggrolls, and some were prettier than others, but I got ’em done and they were delicious! It seems as though you are a woman after my own heart– I love to eat, love good food, love carbs, love cheese, love sweets…just trying to lose weight while avoiding deprivation! Thank you so much for your dedication! I can’t wait to try more! 🙂
Wow! These were so delicious and so easy to make. I made them for dinner last night and my husband wanted them again for lunch today. I also have made you loaded chicken bubble up and that was a big hit too! Thanks so much for sharing your recipes. Can’t wait to try some more .
Susan
for some reason it’s not letting my give your dish a rating but I would give it 5 stars!
I’m so happy you enjoyed, Susan! Not sure why it wouldn’t let you rate, maybe it was just a glitch for a bit. Either way, thank you so much!
I haven’t been to Chili’s in quite a few years, but when we used to go there these egg rolls were my go-to meal. I can’t wait to make these!!
Hi All! I am trying this receipe today, and plan to eat them for lunches all week. Any tips on reheating them so they stay crispy?
In the microwave, they are gonna be a bit soft, but if you happen to have access too an air fryer, toaster oven, or oven- they reheat crispy in there!
These sound amazing and I can’t wait to try them and finally use the air fryer I bought a year ago. I don’t know why it intimidates me, haha
I keep reading the recipe and don’t know why I’m so confused but if it serves 8 and you use 16 wrappers (then I understand it’s 2 per serving) but how come you use 1/4 of the mixture in a wrapper? Sorry if this doesn’t make sense. I’m gonna go read it once more to figure out what I’m not understanding. I am dyslexic so maybe I’m reading it wrong.
I ABSOLUTELY love your recipes. My husband tore these up. Thank you so much for making weight watchers easy. Question: how can I go about freezing and reheating these for later?
Star! You are a genius. This recipe, and all of yours for that matter, is incredible!

Agreed. It should be perfect! I hope you enjoy!

I ran out of wrappers but love the filling! Any idea oh how much a 1/4 cup serving would be without the egg roll wrappers?
Hi Katie! I’m so sorry I don’t have that info handy, but I can’t imagine it being more than a point if even since it’s mostly zero point items. I’m so happy you enjoy it!

Did you let the mixture cool before putting it in the wrapper
No, you don’t need to let it cool before wrapping.

I had the hardest time finding egg roll wrappers. Are they with the other Asian ingredients? I checked 3 stores and all I could find were spring roll wrappers. I really want to make these!
They are actually (usually) located in the produce section near refrigerated dressings and vegetarian type of food. I have never been to a store that didn’t carry them. Maybe ask a store associate? I really hope you can find’m!!

These look awesome. You are a culinary genius! I would love to make some for the freezer. Would you fry them first or freeze before cooking?
Yep make them all up and bake/air fry them before cooking. Make sure they are completely cool before freezing. I wrapped mine in foil and then put’m in a freezer bag. I hope you enjoy!

Hi. Do you think these could be done in rice paper? I have to be Gluten Free so egg roll wrappers are out.
Hi there! I’m sorry, I’ve never worked with rice paper. I really am not sure, but if they work in the same way egg roll wrappers do I don’t see why not! Let me know how it goes if you try it out!

Making now! Where does the cayenne pepper come in? I see it on the list of ingredients but I don’t see where it says to add it in!
Whoops! I’ll fix that. It gets added in with the other spices while cooking the chicken.

Loved these in the airfryer! I also did steak in place of the chicken and it was awesome. Keep these delicious recipes coming! I usually use 2-3 of your recipes in my week. Thank you for all you do
I must try steak with them soon. That sounds SO delicious. Thanks so much for making (and enjoying) my recipes- So happy to hear!

My hubby and I made these last night – HIT IT OUT OF THE BALLPARK ON THIS RECIPE!!! His first bite in, he turned and said “We need to keep these on the rotation!” Thank goodness there is plenty left for round 2 of dinner tonight. We, okay he, cooked the chicken on the Traeger first, seasoned with some tequila lime seasoning, so yummy! Thank you for sharing your recipe!
YUUUUM. Tequila lime seasoning? Sign me up! I am so happy y’all enjoyed these. I am craving them again. It’s been a whole week since I’ve had them. Ha!!

Sooooo good! I love so many of your recipes that I talk about you in my WW meeting all the time! These taste amazing with the southwest ranch. It feels like cheating but it isn’t! I’m making your Italian beef next and very excited about it! Thank you!
Awe thanks so much for letting people know about my recipes. I am SO happy you loved the southwest rolls and ranch! It feels like such a splurge, but it’s really not at all! (My favorite kind of recipe!) I hope you love the beef!

Wow.
All I have to say is WOW!
I made these last night and I couldn’t believe the flavor and how easy they were to make!
I had them leftover today for lunch and they were even better if that’s possible.
I will be making these again soon!!
The best recipe EVER!!! ❤️
Oh my gosh, THANK YOU! I am so happy you’re enjoying them. I threw some in the freezer to see how they freeze so I haven’t had leftovers which makes me sad!
How are they frozen, do they freeze well? And how to reheat from frozen. Thank you.

Hi…any feedback on how they froze?? We’re having them tonight and I can see I already have too many!
They freeze well! I wrap mine in foil and then place them in a freezer bag to reduce the possibility of freezer burn. I take them out and let them freeze naturally in the fridge over night the day before I plan to make the leftovers. I reheat in the oven or air fryer!
Made these last night! Delicious!!!!
So happy you enjoyed them! Thanks for letting me know!

First of all, I’ve already made 2 of your other recipes and you are a God send. I am new to Weight Watchers and your page has been so helpful for me. Your recipes so far have been easy and delicious. Especially for someone who didn’t have that much cooking experience. I loooove these at Chili’s and I want to add some spinach to mine. When and how would you add it?
I would chop it up and add it when adding the beans, corn, etc. You want it to wilt, but not be crazy over cooked in my opinion! As for how much… I’d say maybe 3-4 cups fresh? It cooks down so that should be good. I am so happy you are enjoying the recipes and that they have been helpful to you!
